Windows Server 2012 SKUs Revealed

It looks like Microsoft isn’t just simplifying its Windows client product edition lineup this time around: The Server version of Windows 8, called Windows Server 2012, is also undergoing a nice lineup simplification too. Now, we’ll only have about four SKUs to deal with, a dramatic reduction from the 12 or so we saw with Windows Server 2008 R2.

*UPDATE: Windows Home Server has been cancelled along with Windows Small Business Server Standard. Windows Server 2012 Essentials is indeed an update to Windows Small Business Server Essentials 2011, and is domain-only, so is not applicable to home users.
